Preheat the oven to 350掳F. Grease a 9 X 13-inch cake pan or some cookie sheets. Toss the raisins or currants and the chopped nuts in 1/4 cup of the flour; set aside.





Cream the butter, then add the sugar and blend well. Add the salt, eggs, and molasses and beat well. Mix together the remaining 1 3/4 cups flour, the baking soda, cream of tartar, cinnamon, cloves, mace and nutmeg; add to the butter-sugar-egg mixture and beat thoroughly.
